Dr Melinda Nicewonger loves to engage with people and she loves her work as a earth systems scientist; looking at oceans, atmosphere and land as an inter-disciplinary system. In this podcast she describes her multiple research trips to Antarctica (collecting ice core samples) and her current postdoctoral fellowship at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in Boulder, Colorado. She’s a terrific role model for UCI graduate students!
